Wonder if Brees is going to look at Brady's deal and reconsider doing something friendlier to the team's salary cap and his pass protection...

I'd say it's doubtful for this year, since the ink on his new contract is still wet, but I think when Brees gets further along to that point in the timeline of his contract, down the road, I think it's an almost absolute certainty that something like that WILL happen. The possibilities have probably already been sketched out by Brees and his agent, or Loomis, in their heads, even as a part of structuring his last deal... I'm sure all parties were already thinking one and two steps ahead.

Those $26 and $27 million cap spikes at the end of the Brees deal seemed artificially high to me, like they were forcing it in there.

Brady's "old" cap number this year would have been at $21.8 million, and that is not really all THAT far from Brees' projected $26.4M in 2015 type numbers, especially if you consider it in terms of an "arc" of the contract, or where they were in the timeline of the contract. We shall see.

didn't we just give him 40 or 50 million for resigning? either way it is too early. next year maybe. but 2015 looks to be the target year to extend the deal like Bro says. we will have colston and both guards in FA too

This is looking the Guarnteed money each player has coming to them in their contracts and their FA year

all the info i post was Guarnteed money for the length of there contract thus totally useless with out the contract info on the break down
